Music & Salsa Musicality 101

it's not just a party!

Practice and get to know your friends

Salsa & Friends is a Salsa practica meet-up where you can practice in a friendly safe zone, receive feedback from La Candela teachers board, and get to know your fellow dancers in an after-party meetup.

All are welcome! You don't have to be a student of our school, and all levels are welcome.

Practice

Practice Salsa with people that want to practice!
We choose the right music for you to grow - that means usually easygoing music, and music from the repertoaire of Cuban dances we teach in La Candela.

GEt Feedback

Usually we have at least one teacher around the party. It's your time to questions or reminders. You can ask for a dance and/or feedback. It's the sort of stuff we normally give only in private classes!

after-party meetup

Dancing is all about connection—but on the dance floor, we don’t always have time to truly get to know one another. After the practica, we’ll often head out together for a drink and a chat: a relaxed opportunity to connect beyond the dance and turn familiar faces into real friendships.

Please be mindful - There is no class

There is no intro class to the party, and learning the basics of the dance takes more than the few minutes we can afford each student with.

Great parquet, amazing sound system, and beautiful atmosphere.

In this workshop, we will get to deep dive into what makes music tick, and what makes Salsa - Salsa.

Everyone wants to be a musical dancer - and it is one the most fun rewarding journies. In these workshop we will turn our gaze much into the theory behind everything - knowledge is power! But of  course, the classes are designed for dancers and will have some practical aspects to them.

We gave many of these workshops in the past, but this time we want to stay flexible so we could give your everything that could help you become a musical dancer.

Whos is this for?

No previous experience is technically needed beyond knowing the basic step of Salsa.

You will however be able to absorb the material better at a minimum of Beginner level finished. (4-10 classes)

The material however is not intended only for beginners. The class can also give great insight to experienced and advanced dancers as you come to understand the structure of music in a completely new way.
